    Eigenschaften von Polymeren werden häufig bestimmten technischen Erfordernissen angepaßt, indem bei der Polymerisation ein Monomerengemisch verwendet wird. Die Polymerisation eines Gemischs aus zwei oder mehr Monomeren wird häufig als Copolymerisation bezeichnet und führt beispielsweise zu Coplymeren mit zwei unterschiedlichen Monomertypen oder zu Terpolymeren entsprechend der Verwendung von drei unterschiedlichen Monomertypen. In solchen Polymeren lassen sich häufig bestimmte technische Eigenschaften in Abhängigkeit vom gewählten Comonomerverhältnis und den gewählten Comonomeren einstellen. Properties of polymers are often certain technical Adapted to the requirements by the polymerization Monomer mixture is used. The polymerization of a mixture two or more monomers is often called copolymerization denotes and leads, for example, to copolymers with two different types of monomers or terpolymers according to Use of three different types of monomers. In such Polymers often have certain technical properties Dependence on the selected comonomer ratio and the selected Set comonomers.

    So wird in der US 3,657,175 eine saure Latex-Zusammensetzung beschrieben, wobei das Copolymere aus einem Ester einer ethylenischen Polycarbonsäure und einem ethoxylierten Alkohol einerseits und Methacrylsäure sowie Styrol und/oder Butadien andererseits hergestellt wird. Diese Zusammensetzung wird als Verdicker verwendet.In US 3,657,175 an acid latex composition described, wherein the copolymer of an ester of an ethylenic Polycarboxylic acid and an ethoxylated alcohol on the one hand and Methacrylic acid and styrene and / or butadiene on the other hand becomes. This composition is used as a thickener.

    Bei der Herstellung von Oberflächenbeschichtungen oder von Klebstoffen werden häufig Bindemittel eingesetzt, wie sie durch radikalische Polymerisation von einem oder mehreren radikalisch polymerisierbaren Monomeren erhältlich sind. Eigenschaftsvariationen werden in der Regel gemäß der oben angegebenen Verfahrensweise durchgeführt, d.h., durch Copolymerisation geeigneter Monomerer.In the production of surface coatings or adhesives binders are often used, such as those caused by free radicals Polymerization of one or more radically polymerizable Monomers are available. Property variations are usually carried out according to the procedure given above, i.e. by Copolymerization of suitable monomers.

    Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, die Flexibilität solcher Filme, beispielsweise von Klebstoffilmen, durch Verwendung von Comonomeren wie Dibutylmaleinat, Vinylversatat oder Acrylatestem zu verbessern. Nachteilig wirkt sich bei der Verwendung solcher Comonomerer jedoch aus, daß sich die Haftung von solchen Filmen oder Verklebungen auf polaren Oberflächen aufgrund der Hydrophobie der Comonomeren oft stark verschlechtert. Zudem besteht bezüglich der Kettenlänge in den Alkoholresten der eingesetzten Comonomeren eine Obergrenze dahingehend, daß Comonomere mit langkettigen Resten in der Regel einer Verwendung in der Emulsionspolymerisation nicht mehr zugänglich sind, da ihre Wasserlöslichkeit zu schlecht ist.It is known from the prior art that the flexibility of such films, for example of adhesive films, by using comonomers such as dibutyl maleate, vinyl versatate or acrylate testers. However, the use of such comonomers has a disadvantageous effect from that the liability of such films or sticking on polar surfaces often due to the hydrophobicity of the comonomers badly deteriorated. There is also a chain length in the Alcohol residues of the comonomers used an upper limit in that comonomers with long chain residues usually no longer accessible for use in emulsion polymerization because their water solubility is too poor.

    Emulsionspolymerisationen, beispielsweise die Emulsionspolymerisation von Vinylacetat, erfordern häufig die Zugabe eines Schutzkolloids. Eine solcher Verfahrensschritt verzögert zum einen den Verfahrensablauf, zum anderen entstehen zusätzliche Kosten für den Herstellungsprozeß. Emulsion polymerizations, for example emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate, often require the addition of a protective colloid. A such a process step delays the process flow, on the one hand others incur additional manufacturing process costs.

    Der Erfindung lag daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Copolymeres zur Verfügung zu stellen, das ohne aufwendige Arbeitsschritte herstellbar ist und bei einer Verwendung in Klebstoffen zu flexiblen Klebstoffilmen führt, die jedoch auch auf hydrophilen Substratoberflächen eine ausgezeichnete Haftung aufweisen.The invention was therefore based on the object of a copolymer To be available that can be manufactured without complex work steps and leads to flexible adhesive films when used in adhesives, which, however, is also excellent on hydrophilic substrate surfaces Have liability.

    Die oben genannten Aufgaben werden durch ein Copolymeres gelöst, das durch radikalische Copolymerisation von mindestens zwei Komponenten A und B erhältlich ist, wobei als Komponente A ein Carbonsäureester einer ungesättigten Carbonsäure mit einem Alkylenoxidaddukt und als Komponente B ein weiteres radikalisch polymerisierbares Monomeres eingesetzt wird.The above objects are achieved by a copolymer that by radical copolymerization of at least two components A and B is available, with component A being a carboxylic acid ester an unsaturated carboxylic acid with an alkylene oxide adduct and as Component B is another free-radically polymerizable monomer is used.

    Gegenstand der Erfindung ist damit die Verwendung eines Copolymeren, erhältlich durch radikalische Copolymerisation von mindestens zwei Komponenten A und B, wobei

  • a) mindestens ein Ester einer mindestens difunktionellen und mindestens eine olefinisch ungesättigte Doppelbindung aufweisenden Carbonsäure mit einem Alkylenoxidaddukt als Komponente A und
  • b) mindestens ein weiteres radikalisch polymerisierbares Monomeres aus der Gruppe Vinylester von Carbonsäuren mit 2 bis 44 C-Atomen, Ethylen oder Propylen als Komponente B
  • eingesetzt wird, als Bindemittel in Klebstoffzubereitungen, Dichtstoffen oder Redispersionspulvem. The invention thus relates to the use of a copolymer obtainable by radical copolymerization of at least two components A and B, wherein
